CORNER OR DIVISION BAR FOR SHOW WINDOWS OR THE LIKE.

Application filed April 4,

The present invention relates to corner or division bars for show windows or the like and has for its prime object to provide simple and inexpensive means for holding the two outer members together for holding the corner or division bar of a show window or the like, said means being strong and durable, easy to install, and thoroughly eflicient and reliable in use.

With the above and other objects in view as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafte more fully described and claimed.

In the drawing: 7

Figure l is an inside elevation of the corner or division bar assembly.

Figure 2 is a section therethrough.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the hold ing device.

Figure 4 is an inside elevation thereof.

Referring to the drawing in detail, it will be seen that numerals 5 denote the two strips which form the corner or division bar on the show window or the like, these strips being provided along their longitudinal edges with overhanging flanges 6. The numeral 7 denotes the stud fixed at one end to the center of a rectangular plate 8, which is bent along two transverse lines equi-distant from the 1928. Serial No. 267,421.

center to provide angular ends 9. To the angular ends 9 there are permanently secured plates 10, which extend beyond the ends of the end portions 9. The flanges 6 are slidably disposed over the end edges of the plates 10, thus forming the corner. The plate 8 may be readily bent so that the end portions 9 and the plates 10 are disposed at the proper angle with respect to one another. Of course, the in device may be made in various sizes. It will be seen that the structure is exceedingly simple and may be manufactured at a low cost and is capable of considerable ease of installation. It is apparent that changes in the details of construction may be resorted to, without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its advantages.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:

A holding device of the'class described comprising a body plate, said body plate having its end portion diverging from each other from its intermediate portion, a pair of plates, one secured to each end portion and converging toward each other beyond and away from said intermediate portion of the body plate and terminating in close proximity to each other.

In testimony whereof I affix I11 signature.

BORIS ORKIN.
